Housing First Minnesota, the state’s leading voice for homebuilders and remodelers, has recognized 28 Minnesota Legislators as recipients of the 2018 Housing Leadership Awards. The honor recognizes legislators for their efforts throughout the 2018 legislative session to promote housing affordability and homeownership.

“During the 2018 legislative session, these housing leaders played key roles in helping Housing First Minnesota protect the dream of homeownership for future generations,” said David Siegel, executive director of Housing First Minnesota. “Homeownership is too important to our communities to ignore, and these legislators understand that.”

 

“I am honored to be recognized for my commitment to affordable housing,” said Senator Mike Goggin (R-Red Wing), one of the award recipients. “Every day, men and women across Minnesota bust their tails in hopes of someday owning their own home. If we can make it just a little easier for them to achieve their own American Dream, then we are on the right path.”
